Send us a textWelcome back! Thanks for stopping by.This episode goes into detail on how and when we use the perfect tense - another common past tense! We learned the perifràstic tense in season 1, but this season we want to be able to use multiple tenses and use them in the right way, as this is often something that learners find tricky!Hope you find it useful! Please rate, follow and share if you do :)Support the showCourse: Currently 20% off our Catalan for Beginners Course - only for the month of Feb!Patreon: The Lazy Linguist Buy us a coffee: Buy me a Coffee Instagram: @lazylinguistcatalan Facebook: The Lazy Linguist PodcastChristina offers private lessons - enquire through a DM on socials or through the link: Private lessons
